The THEW Initiative aims at promoting cross-fertilization of scientific knowledge, resources and ideas that will advance the field of quantitative electrocardiography, the THEW will strive to:
- Facilitate scientific projects toward the development, testing and validation of ECG-related technologies and platforms;
- Leverage expertise and resources toward the implementation of collaborative projects among FDA, UR, and other public and private stakeholders;
- As appropriate, incorporate scientific findings from the THEW into the premarket evaluation process for electrocardiographic devices and associated methodologies, and into the total product life cycle.
Today, the THEW project is supported by numerous organizations including ECG equipment companies, contract research organizations (CROs), academic group, individuals and professional societies.
We provide below the list of organizations that have collaborated with our initiative in terms of data, technologies, resources, or data sharing (Contribution). These collaborations have led to the development and the success of this initiative.
